Heartland Ventures is a venture capital firm that connects high-growth startups with our Midwestern corporate LPs and customer base. We invest in high-growth startups bringing innovative technology to traditional Midwestern industries, including manufacturing, construction, logistics, and real estate.

Our deep network of executives at industry-leading corporations helps validate technologies by serving as pilot customers, often before we invest in the startup.

Heartland Ventures plays an integral role in bridging the gap between traditional technology hubs and the Midwest. This model benefits the Midwest by:

-Helping startups expand into the region and create new employment opportunities
-Creating more technology-related jobs that will continue to attract talent to the region and help retain the existing talent for the long-term 
-Importing high-growth startups that aspiring entrepreneurs can learn from
-Attracting investment dollars from outside the region to strengthen the region’s innovation infrastructure
-Bringing national attention to the region
